Fried Shrimp Crispy Southern-Style Fried Shrimp Ingredients: 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined (tails on or off) 1 cup buttermilk 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional) 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup cornmeal 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon paprika 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional) Salt and black pepper to taste Vegetable oil, for frying Lemon wedges and parsley, for serving Directions: Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. In a medium bowl, combine buttermilk and hot sauce. Add shrimp and let marinate for 15–30 minutes in the refrigerator. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, cornmeal, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove shrimp from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge in the flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Fry the shrimp in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve hot with lemon wedges, fresh parsley, and your favorite dipping sauce (remoulade, cocktail, or tartar).
